🚀 Nuno's Dotfiles

Your dotfiles are how you personalize your system. These are mine. 😎

Supported Operating Systems

OS	Version	CI
macOS	Mojave (10.14) Catalina (10.15) Big Sur (11.0)

🔧 Installation

via curl

bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nunorafaelrocha/dotfiles/main/bin/dot)"

via git

git clone --recursive https://github.com/nunorafaelrocha/dotfiles ~/.dotfiles
cd ~/.dotfiles
./bin/dot

🔁 Update

dot is a simple script that installs some dependencies, sets sane macOS defaults, and so on. Tweak this script, and occasionally run dot from time to time to keep your environment fresh and up-to-date. You can find this script in bin/.

💄 Customization

Everything is configured and tweaked within ~/.dotfiles.

The main file you'll want to change right off the bat is zsh/zshrc.symlink, which sets up a few paths that'll be different on your particular machine.

topics

Everything's built around topic areas. If you're adding a new area to your forked dotfiles — say, "node" — you can simply add a node directory and put files in there. Anything with an extension of .zsh will get automatically included into your shell. Anything with an extension of .symlink will get symlinked without extension into $HOME when you run dot or dot --link.

components

There's a few special files in the hierarchy.

• bin/: Anything in bin/ will get added to your $PATH and be made available everywhere.
• Brewfile: This is a list of applications for Homebrew Cask to install: things like Chrome and 1Password and stuff. Might want to edit this file before running any initial setup.
• topic/*.zsh: Any files ending in .zsh get loaded into your environment.
• topic/path.zsh: Any file named path.zsh is loaded first and is expected to setup $PATH or similar.
• topic/completion.zsh: Any file named completion.zsh is loaded last and is expected to setup autocomplete.
• topic/install.sh: Any file named install.sh is executed when you run dot or dot --install. To avoid being loaded automatically, its extension is .sh, not .zsh.
• topic/*.symlink: Any file ending in *.symlink gets symlinked into your $HOME. This is so you can keep all of those versioned in your dotfiles but still keep those autoloaded files in your home directory. These get symlinked in when you run dot or dot --link.

🙏 thanks

I forked Zach Holman's awesome dotfiles which were an easy way to start my own customization.
